This research review offers an essential guide to debates about the causes and consequences of the decline of mortality and the improvement of human health over the last three centuries. It discusses the early-life origins of adult health and disease, changes in height, weight and body mass, the definition and measurement of the 'standard of living', and the economic and social impact of health improvements.
